BREAKING: The long-anticipated collaboration album from Nas and DJ Premier finally has a release date: December 12, 2023. During a performance in Bristol, England, last night, DJ Premier energized fans by confirming the news, shouting, “How many people are ready for that Nas-Premier album? December 12th, get ready, motherf*ckers!”
This announcement comes after nearly two decades of speculation and demand for a full album from the iconic duo. Fans first learned of this project way back in 2006 when Nas mentioned it in Scratch magazine, following the success of their earlier collaborations.
The buzz around this release is monumental, as DJ Premier played a crucial role in producing several tracks from Nas’ groundbreaking debut, Illmatic. With hits like “N.Y. State of Mind” and “Represent,” their partnership has been pivotal in shaping the landscape of hip-hop.
Since the initial hints of this collaborative effort, Nas has released nine albums, including a celebrated collaboration with Damian Marley and six recent projects with producer Hit-Boy.

As anticipation builds, the release of this album could redefine the current hip-hop landscape. With a history of impactful music, both artists are expected to deliver an experience that resonates deeply with their audience.
Stay tuned for more updates as the release date approaches. Fans are encouraged to prepare for what promises to be a significant moment in music history. This is not just another album; it’s the culmination of nearly two decades of aspirations and artistic synergy. Don’t miss it!
